The rational design of materials for organic electronics and spintronics has been a long-standing challenge. In this presentation it will be demonstrated by theoretical means how to achieve Fermi level engineering in an organic semiconductor like for instance a metal phthalocyanine. It turns out that substitution of the peripheral hydrogen atoms by either fluorine atoms or methoxy groups allows to tune the Fermi level by about 1.5 eV [1]. Finally, we show how such tuning could be exploited to achieve a systematic way to manufacture charge and spin transfer materials by studying the system (MeO)₈CoPc/F₁₆CoPc and compare its electronic and magnetic properties to the first representative of this materials class namely MnPc/F₁₆CoPc [2].
